OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO In "Mister Antonio." you may recall the mayor of th- town was a most exemplary citizen when he was at home. He walked discreetly; he went to church regularly, and la word and deed he set, before the young people of the commuLlty In which he lived, an example of virtue and prob ity which only the morally am bitious could ever hope to attain. It was when he went to th city where be was not known, and where he could keep things dark, that he cut loose, so to speak. lie was not averse to a little liquor and a gay night or two, but he did not want anyone In his home town to find ft out He had an ambition to be thought well of, so that when he was guilty of a moral delinquency It was always behind closed doors. It Isn't what yon do that really mat ters, a good many people seem to be lieve, It Is what you are caught at If things can be kept dark no oue should worry. I learned to smoke when I was a boy of seventeen on the farm. My older brother hurrying to get off to a dance a dozen miles or so away of fered me a couple of nickel clears If I would run out the buirzy and hitch tip his horse. I accepted the offer and later smoked the two cigars without batting an eyelash. It did not make Tb sick, but In spite of that fact. I've tever cared a great deal for smoking. I Imagine that during the last fifty years I have smoked on the average as often as once In six months. Gordon Is principal of a high school In northern Illinois. One of his stu dents, It happened, saw me once tak ing my semiannual smoke and report ed back to headquarters. Gordon Jumped me about It the next time he saw me. It was wrong he told me; I was setting a bad example to young men. He seemed shocked. "Don't you smoke?" I Inquired. "Yes," he replied; "but I never let my boys see me." "Well, maybe I smoke once In a while," I replied, "but I'm not a hypocrite." There had been some drinking fid lowing the PI Eta dance, the neigh bors had called the police nnd two of the fellows had been taken down to SAW CUSTER'S END Chief Magpie U Fflid to be the only survivor of the Indians who fought General Custer In the buttle of the Little Rig Horn. He lias lost track of his ago. He never sleeps Indoors or on a soft bed, eats no sweets and takes dally exercise chopping wood, like the former kaiser of Germany. Mi I T iw M'x t." Vijf "nil i v; the city cooler to spend the night Their names were In the paper the following morning, and I called the hend of the house to talk over the affair. "I'm awfully ashamed of the affair, dean." he acknowledged to me. "I did my level best to keep the fellows quiet, but In spite of what I could do they would be noisy. I hate like the dickens to have a thing like that get out It's bad for the organization." I admitted it, but the thing that In terested me was the fact that Allen was not particularly com-erned with what had happened. His concern lay In the fact that be had been unable to keep It dark. (fi. lilt. Wntm Nwtppr Union ) HO FAT , He's OJ A pier Lights There are, In Greater New York. l.SOG.&sO telephones. They are used for 8,000,0)0 calls per day. That is understandable enough, as a great part of the business of this largest city In the United States Is done by telephone. There was a day w hen some body in the home usually went to market Now most of them telephone. Brokerage houses do most of their business over the wire, although late ly the switchboard operators In these pWices of Investment and chance have not been so busy. Stores, hotels, news papers, buslm.'sse of every description find constant use for the telephone. You don't run over to a friend's or neighbor's place any more; or, If you do, you first telephone to find out whether he Is In. The working boy used to have to wait until evening to call on his girl. Now he can tele phone her In his noon hour and gen erally does. Women make half-hour social calls over the phone. An In teresting bit of news can be relayed Instantly. All htimnn emotions, which can be transmitted by the voice, trav el over the wires. I sometimes have wondered what would happen In a city such as New York If some day the telephone sys tem suddenly were destroyed. I can think of nothing which would paralyze or Isolate a city quicker. The renult for a time would be panic and chaos; although the telegraph and radio might take up some of the burden. A man who stnmers tells me that he never has any difficulty In pro nouncing any word If he closes his eyes. He worked that out from the discovery that he never stammered when talking In the dark.

Miss Fickle merely repeated what she told as tounded questioners. "My arm was offensive to me and 1 cut it off." Then she told again of the "mur derous Impulses" which centered In her right arm, and Justitled her act Plane Line Now Runs From Tashkent to Moscow Tashkent, U. S. H. It.
